Chapter 216 Penguin is not dead?
Some time passed.

Under the leadership of the Wayne Group, major families and companies in Gotham have invested large sums of money in urban reconstruction work, with all the human, material and technical capabilities available.

This allowed Gotham's vitality to recover rapidly, and people's lives gradually stabilized.

However, under this calm surface, there is actually a turbulent undercurrent, as if there are two forces in an endless struggle, and no one knows what will happen in the next second.

Old Town, Gotham Police Headquarters.

"Jim, Batman has been taking more and more action against the Mosaic Gang recently."

In the director's office, Harvey Bullock said to Gordon with a solemn expression.

"Although most people are now recovering from the disaster, you and I both know that the Man-Bat Virus leak is far from over, because we still don't know who the bastard who released the virus is."

"Batman has been looking for trouble with the Mosaic Gang since the day after the Man-Bat Virus crisis was lifted. Do you think it's possible..."

Hearing this, Gordon narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You mean Batman thinks that the man behind the release of the Man-Bat Virus is Mr. Mosaic, so that's why he has been targeting the Mosaic Gang recently?"

"Otherwise, is there any other possibility? I don't think the best detective in the world would go and investigate another completely unrelated case before finding out the real culprit."

Brock replied matter-of-factly.

"Batman never exchanges information with the police. He doesn't trust the GCPD. We have always given him information unilaterally. Therefore, it is normal for Batman not to tell us about Mr. Mosaic."

Gordon was silent for a while, and then asked suddenly: "Isn't Kurt Langstone going to speak?"

Bullock shook his head slightly and said: "He still said the same thing, pinning all his hopes on Batman and refusing to say anything else. He is also very wary of the police."

Having said this, Bullock laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Even in the eyes of criminals, we police officers are not as trustworthy as Batman."

In the final analysis, the human bat serum is the result of Kurt's research. The leakage of the virus must be related to him. No one can't figure it out.

Since Robin and Batgirl were able to track down the kidnapping of Francine Langstone, of course the GCPD can also find out.

However, Gordon and others lost clues as to who kidnapped Francine and threatened Kurt to hand over the serum formula. They didn't even know that the other party was from the Penguin Gang.

Because all the surveillance videos of Tom captured in Arkham Asylum have been taken away by Batman, none of them were left behind. In addition, there were many people visiting Kurt in the prison within a month. Gordon and others had no way of knowing who it was. Obtained the recipe from Kurt.

All in all, Kurt trusted the Bat-Family more than the Gotham Police. He took the initiative to reveal everything to Robin, while facing the GCPD, Kurt remained silent.

This directly interrupted the clues of Gordon and others. Without figuring out who kidnapped Francine, it would be impossible to find the real culprit behind the scenes.

As long as the murderer who almost destroyed Gotham is found, the crisis in Gotham has never been truly resolved.

No one knows whether this person will continue to carry out terrorist attacks, or whether it is possible to cause similar incidents of human-bat virus transmission in other cities.

"Since Kurt doesn't want to say anything, let him send him back to Arkham as soon as possible. It is against the rules to keep him in the police station."

Gordon rubbed his forehead and said.

"He was picked up by Arkham prison guards 42 minutes ago."

After receiving Bullock's answer, Gordon nodded tiredly and continued with the previous topic.

"Batman's pursuit of the Mosaic gang is indeed unusual, but to say that the Man-Bat virus was spread by the Mosaic gang, Harvey, I think this possibility is very low. He has no motive for doing so and cannot profit from it. .”

"I suspect that Mosaic should have a close connection with the mastermind behind the scenes. Maybe he is an accomplice or something." "Mosaic is an ally deeply tied to the Penguin Gang. The only one who can order Mosaic is the Penguin. Jim, are you doubting this?" Is it related to penguins?"

Brock pinched his chin and thought, and then he immediately frowned and asked.

"But didn't Penguin die due to an attack by a man-bat infected person? If he was the one who dominated everything, how could he die from the virus he spread?"

"Corpse."

Gordon whispered a word.

"what?"

Brock didn't react for a moment.

"I said the body, Harvey, the Penguin's body still hasn't been found."

Gordon's eyes narrowed.

"Perhaps his body has been eaten by those crazy mutant bats?"

Bullock tentatively guessed.

"Maybe, but after a comprehensive inspection of the blood stains and stumps and broken arms left at the scene, the final test report showed that only a small part of the blood stains and muscle tissue were consistent with the Penguin's DNA, and the rest were all His men."

Gordon shook his head.

"The most important thing is that the little flesh and blood left by the Penguin is far from fatal injuries."

Bullock's expression changed and he said in shock: "Jim, do you suspect that Penguin is not dead?"
-
Just as Gordon and Bullock were analyzing who might be behind the scenes in the GCPD, on the other side, dozens of meters deep beneath Gotham, lay a sewer with countless twists and turns.

A tall, dog-like man wearing a suit and holding a cane walked in slowly.

This man seems to have a very evil gentlemanly temperament, which makes people think that he is not a good person at first glance, but at the same time, he seems to be very polite and kind.

But temperament is an ethereal thing with no meaning worth studying.

The man also had one characteristic that no one could ever forget.

That was the head above his neck that looked like a huge inverted glass. It was not an empty glass, it was filled with an unknown blue liquid.

Only Mr. Burnable, one of the allies of the Penguin Gang, possesses such characteristics.

Mr. Keran was seen walking forward while constantly looking behind him, repeatedly checking to see if anyone was following him.

Until he came to a T-shaped intersection.

Mr. Keran stopped before the fork in the road and leaned against the wall at the corner. At this time, he could only see the route forward and the route back. As for what environment or things were behind the corner, Mr. Keran's current position , all invisible.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
At this moment, Mr. Keran knocked on the wall three times, and then whispered.

"Boss, make sure it's safe and no one is following you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a dull sound of footsteps coming from behind the corner.

 Damn it, Yuzi forgot to get up early to catch the train yesterday. She went to bed at 02:30 this morning, then got up at 09 am to catch the train, and then sat in a hard seat all morning. Although the journey was not too long, at 30 pm We're home. When I was counting the time yesterday, I felt that even if I started coding at four o'clock in the afternoon, coding six thousand words three times a day shouldn't be a big problem. I even praised Haikou, completely ignoring the lack of sleep and the terrible mental state. The problem, especially in the past two days, is that there are so many people taking the train. There are only hard seats available for sleepers. It is difficult to sleep for a while on the train. When I got home, I was really sleepy, so I went to catch up on my sleep, and then closed my eyes. Open, come on, it’s [-]:[-] in the evening, and you’re still sleepy. The third watch is really powerless. Yuzi feels like a clown now. I don’t care. A clown will be a clown. The third watch is extended. Until tomorrow, if I can’t do it, I’ll wear a maid outfit and post it in the comments section!
